(Benefits) The use of wireless transmission allows convenient and synchron-
ized control of hearing aid functions. The BEYOND wireless hearing aids
share input information between the two partner hearing aids. In so doing,
the wearers would experience the following additional user benefits (only
when wearing binaural BEYOND hearing aids).
Synchronization of volume control settings between hearing aids – The vol-
ume in both hearing aids will change when the VC is adjusted on one ear.
Synchronization of listening programs between hearing aids – The same lis-
tening program is used in both hearing aids when one is changed by the
user.
Surveillance of partner hearing aid – The hearing aid(s) will signal an alert
("partner check") when a hearing aid battery has expired, or that one of the
hearing aids has fallen off. In rare instances, a much stronger wireless source
nearby may activate this alert. This serves as an early warning to the wearer
of such service interruption.
Coordination of compression – The BEYOND hearing aids maintain the in-
tensity level difference between ears (inter-aural level difference, ILD). In
some situations where speech is presented to one side and noise the other
side, this coordinated action could enhance the relative loudness of the
speech sounds to the noise background and improve speech understanding
for some wearers.
